Wrote about how we opted to update @ohmyz.sh's contribution guidelines to account for AI. If anything, I wanted to capture where my brain is at on the topic, should we need to revisit this in 6-12 months.

Happy birthday Robby!
It’s December… so here’s the straight truth.
Our primary Discord moderator has slowly taken on more and more of the workload… and they’ll be stepping away soon. We need a few new people to help keep the @ohmyz.sh Discord running smoothly.
If you’ve ever thought “I should get more involved with open source”… this is one of those moments.
Something new is coming from the Planet Argon team.
Introducing Commit Goods, official merch that gives back to open source projects.
Stay tuned for Black Friday sales! commitgoods.com
Decided to support more open source maintainers by running a merch shop for their community. Excited to launch with Ghostty, fzf, Vue.js, Redux, and... of course... Oh My Zsh.

You might notice...
- Zero plugins
- Zero themes
- Zero vision for the future.
Yet, nearly 2500 developers showed up to contribute code to what it is today.
You already use Oh My Zsh.
You already believe tools should feel good to use.
Sponsoring isn’t charity. It’s stewardship.

It took a while but I've now seen that Twitter is no longer a sane place. It's full of trolls and hatred, and the algorithm boosts that. Just deactivated my account. #goodriddance
Where have all the tech creators gone?
uBlock Origin Lite is made to support MV3, by the same author. It's not as dynamic but it does the work and I trust gorhill chromewebstore.google.com/detail/ubloc...
I love you, @ohmyz.sh

OK this worked, but only to confirm there were no appointments over time. On the day of their release the system was too saturated.
What worked: going to their office and begging to be let in (good old social engineering).
My partner's been trying for weeks to get an appointment to collect her TIE card.

So I finally automated this via #playwright to get notified when there are spots available.
